I know I post the odd slightly morbid photo but I found this scene on the streets of Manhattan. Someone took the time to put down a white rose... 💚

I’m making a birthday card for Dad. Why send him a poison dart frog? Decades ago Dad and I spent way too much money on some pet Green & Black Poison Dart Frogs. I saw them, I desperately wanted them and Dad probably should have said no, but he said “you buy a couple and I’ll buy a couple”. Years later I find myself photographing them in the wild and making a card from the photo for my Dad’s 80th birthday which is in a couple of weeks. People get old, but our memories mature to become inspiration which is passed to the next generation. ❤️

This little guy is a Lesser Violet-earred Hummingbird. I snapped him sipping nectar on a coffee plantation in Panama. Follow the link in my bio for the story behind the image and more photographs.
